Thrive Community Fitness of Lacey held their 6th annual 5k Freedom Run Saturday in Lacey. Over 130 people participated in the 5k run and kids run. Paul and Debbie MacLurg, owners of Thrive, work with community sponsors to hold the run, which supports the Boys & Girls Clubs of Thurston County. “We will raise over $3,000 to help Boys & Girls Clubs of Thurston County,” says Steve Singer, Thrive manager.
“It is a great way to connect with the community and support part of our core value here at Thrive – to love and serve our community members,” Paul adds.
